Chris Brookes, prices and timetable not published yet, train from Southampton Airport to Christchurch approximately 50 mins, taxi from Christchurch station to the Airport 10 to 15 mins, by road it's probably 30 or 40 miles on motorway or dual carrigeway so possibly slightly quicker
I only heard the news on the local TV channel this evening

So really,flying into Southampton and then back out with Flybe would still be the easiest option for us when we travel by plane (without the dogs)

Chris Brookes, definately unless of course the flights are better timed doing the Bournemouth route

There's going to be one flight a day each way; leaving GVA at 10:25 and arriving in BOH at 11:00, then 11:30 departure arriving in GVA at 14:05. The outbound prices start atm at £15.25, with the return at £15.99.

So Chris in answer to your question it would be easier for you to travel on a Monday or Friday because that gives you the time to get the first flight out of Jersey get into Southampton and get the flight to Berne

Chris Brookes taxi from Soton to Bmth airport cost me £30 one way last season - can't recall taxi co but it's based at Bournemouth airport and was the cheapest rate I could find, very helpful staff (NOT a local Soton taxi co - wounded bulls would feel ashamed to charge as much as a Soton cabbie...) Load up taxi with 4pax and it's £7.50pp each way. Price not bad, really, considering it's £11 from our door in Ocean Village to Soton airport.
Michelle, is that one flight each way, each DAY?
Coz one of the probs with Flybe is that they only fly some days of the week and the days vary from route to route.
Mind you, £15.99+taxes one way ain't bad....

Manda, yes, that's a daily flight.

Being bored surfing this am, Well its August and business is slow!
There are still £16.00 flights B'mth to Gva to be had in January and February. (If you fiddle around there is a calendar view that lets you see 2 weeks flights/prices at the same time.)
BUT What does the following mean exactly?
Travelling with skis / snowboard, Skis/snowboards (including boots and poles),
are subject to charge of £10 per item per flight. The charge is non-refundable.
Does this mean if I check in my boot bag and ski bag and poles I am charged £30.00 (£10.00 per item)
or
Skis including boots and poles £10.00 ?

boredsurfin, no charge for boots and poles. I think you will only be charged if you had skis or a snowboard.If you had both then £ 20 each way

rob@rar.org.uk, the airport is actually closer to Christchurch, they've two long stay car parks for 6 to 8 days the priced is £32.50, it's a small airport so everything is close to the terminal, but they have a very long runway,Link to the Airport

D G Orf, thanks. Must work out how long it would take to drive from home to Christchurch. Is it easy to get to the airport from the M3?
